Book Paul Rackham

Download or read book Paul Rackham written by Paul Rackham and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Paul Rackham began wheeling and dealing as a child, even he couldn't have foreseen building a multimillion-pound business. He couldn't have known that he would one day socialize with the likes of Lord Lucan, or that he would own racehorses ridden by Lester Piggott. His has been an inspirational journey, one that began in rural poverty and climbed to the ranks of the Sunday Times rich list. Here, in his own direct but modest style, Paul tells the story of his Suffolk childhood, the emergence of his own entrepreneurial spirit, the rebellion of adolescence, the building of multiple business interests and the overcoming of inevitable set-backs. His memoir chimes with the great themes of post-war Britain, from the time of austerity and making do with the barest of essentials, through the building of a rejuvenated nation and on into the boom and bust years of the later 20th century. It's also a story that offers fascinating insight into the emergence of Britain's recycling industry, told by a man who was in the vanguard of changing how a country thinks about waste management. Through the highs of rapid growth and the lows of deals gone bad and personal misfortune, Paul's inspirational and thought-provoking story proves that with an entrepreneurial approach, hard work and a streetwise attitude anything is possible.

Book Luke the Historian in Light of Research

Download or read book Luke the Historian in Light of Research written by Archibald Thomas Robertson and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2018-02-28 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “The work of the last fifteen years has created new interest in the writings of Luke. The relation of Luke’s Gospel to Mark’s Gospel and the Logia of Jesus has sharply defined his own critical methods and processes. The researches of Harnack, Hobart, and Ramsay have restored the credit of Luke with many critics who had been carried away by the criticism of Baur, and who looked askance upon the value of Luke as the historian of early Christianity. It has been like mining—digging now here, now there. The items in Luke’s books that were attacked have been taken up one by one. The work has been slow and piecemeal, of necessity. But it is now possible to gather together into a fairly complete picture the results. It is a positively amazing vindication of Luke. The force of the argument is cumulative and tremendous. One needs to have the patience to work through the details with candor and a willingness to see all the facts with no prejudice against Luke or against the supernatural origin of Christianity.” —From the Preface

Book Criminal Judicial Review

  • Author : Piers von Berg
  • Publisher : Bloomsbury Publishing
  • Release : 2014-09-25
  • ISBN : 1782254218
  • Pages : 798 pages

Download or read book Criminal Judicial Review written by Piers von Berg and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2014-09-25 with total page 798 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a comprehensive guide to challenging decisions of criminal courts and public bodies in the criminal justice system using judicial review. Written by a team of criminal and public law practitioners, it considers claims for judicial review arising in the criminal justice system, which now represent a distinct area of public law. These claims are set apart by special considerations and rules; for example, on the limits of the High Court's jurisdiction or the availability of relief during ongoing proceedings. Criminal practitioners may lack the background to spot public law points. Equally, public law specialists may be unfamiliar with criminal law and types of issues that arise. Criminal Judicial Review is intended as a resource for both. The book deals with the principles, case law, remedies and, the practice and procedure for obtaining legal aid and costs. It will be of assistance to any practitioner preparing or responding to judicial review claims involving the following: - The Police and the Crown Prosecution Service. - Magistrates' courts, the Crown Court and Coroners. - Prisons and the Parole Board. - Statutory bodies such as the Independent Police Complaints Commission and the Legal Aid Agency. - Claimants who are children, young persons or have mental disorders. - The international dimension including extradition proceedings and European Union law. - Practical considerations such as CPR Part 54, remedies, legal aid and costs. From the Foreword by The Rt Hon Lord Judge “The book is offered in clear and simple style, focussing less on esoteric theoretical considerations and more on the practical needs of the practitioner. It brings together materials relating to public law with which a criminal specialist may be less well informed, and material relevant to the criminal justice processes which may not be immediately apparent to the public law specialist. It will assist with the preparation of arguments, and also enable submissions which are unarguable to be discarded. It will therefore provide valuable guidance in this broad and developing area of practice.”
